(Location cited as NO 421 976). Cambus o'May, beside the A93 is a white painted suspension footbridge; it was refurbished in 1988 by Kincardine and Deeside District Council, having fallen into a partly ruinous state.

Built in 1905, it was a gift to the area by Mr Alexander Gordon, from Kent; it was designed by James Abernethy, of Aberdeen. Steel rope cables curve down from the tapered lattice pylons which have ball finials. A lattice truss with sides 46ins [1.24m] high carries the wooden deck which is 4ft [1.2m] wide. The suspender rods are bolted into the top member of this truss, and the cable comes down to within 7ins [178mm] of this.

The charm of this light bridge is completed by the entrances. One side has an unusual swing gate, and the other a turnstile with a tall pole; old photographs reveal that the roadside entrance has been changed. There was once a steep flight of steps up to the road.

Originally built by James Abernethy in 1905, the bridge was re-opened in 1988 by Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother following extensive refurbishment. At the time of a RCAHMS photograph survey in 2000, there were proposals to add clamps to the suspension cables to prevent slippage of the hangers.
